Proposed Mission Statement (by Daniel Kalla):
Education is Marlboro College's ultimate goal and creates alumni who can produce significant environmental impacts on a large scale. Institutional environmental measures produce similar changes within the Marlboro community. This section examines Marlboro's education system and institutional commitment in terms of their effective environmental sustainability.
Some potential data streams?
(from Ellie)
- percentage of students who have environmentally related plans; percentage who get environmental studies degrees
- number of environmental courses taught per semester (average)
- average number of tutorials taught
- classes that incorporate farm or other existing campus sustainability efforts (greenhouse, etc.)
- lectures/speakers/film showings that are sustainability related?
- community member involvement with sustainability initiatives (work day, etc.)
- community infrastructure to support sustainability (EQC, EAC, SLCs, etc.)
- faculty/staff professional development
- sustainability in orientation?
- outreach programs
- sustainability and residential life; initiatives, programs, themed housing?
- OP practices?
- faculty sustainability research
- strategic plan for sustainability?
- socially/environmentally responsible investment program?
- environmental mission statement
On the first page to this section I agree with the wording for the mission statement. Ellie great list but sould we really include flim showings? Also if we are including outreach programs, should we then include what percent takes advangages of those? Or how avaiable are they?
